Halloween tree and mantel

Hi there everyone!

So glad you are visiting me today.

Today I am sharing our Halloween tree and a Halloween Mantel.

I love Halloween. Hopefully, you don’t mind it either. It’s just a fun whimsical time, and although our boys are older

I still think they sort of get a kick out of it. I just have a ball decorating for the festive day ahead.

My little trip to Michael’ s a few weeks ago was successful When I picked up a few things to make my Monogrammed pumpkin I decided because there was a big sale I could purchase a few Halloween ornaments too!

Let’s start with my Halloween tree.

Better known around here as my Charlie Brown tree.

Last year I bought this tree and kept it up until after Valentines day.

The husband was a little over it at that point.

You can check out my Charlie Brown Christmas tree and Valentines tree as well if you have a second.

The theme around here was lots of skeleton heads.

These ornaments I found at Michaels for 40% off.

I bought all my ornaments there this year. This was my first Halloween tree and I am sure I will continue each year.

Even when the boys are off to college..why not!

I tied some cute orange polka dot ribbon on the ends of a few branches.

A little bit of creepy sparkle

I kept my Fall wreath up, you may recall seeing it in my Sunflower Mantel post,

and just added the Happy Halloween sign and a crow. I figure after Halloween I will put my Fall mantel decor back up until after Thanksgiving.

Why make too much work for myself when I can work with what I had already there.

This banner is my favorite. Pre cut by Martha Stewart. I think the entire pack was $5.00. It is a big pack and more that just what you see. You can make lots of banners.

This year was probably the easiest Halloween mantel I have done. Usually, I go a bit hay wire, but because of the tree, I kept it a bit more simple.

Those little white pumpkins are my Fall Dollar tree pumpkins I did a few weeks ago. I simply turned them around and hot glued creepy spiders on them. Two for oner!
